Tow rig beast

[pennsylvaniaboy]

so heres my idea. the internationaly 4700-4900's can be had for decently cheap these days. they also have the dt466 engines which seem great to me. my question is could these haul a k30 on say 44's?

this to make one rig w/o a trailer. this would be a roll back idea on just a dovetail?

The issue comes down to maintenance. Way harder and more expensive to maintain that truck that a regular 1 ton/trailer setup.
